The UBC School of Engineering Sustainable Transport Safety Research Lab (STS) propose to develop Canada's first Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) hydrail locomotive. Hydrail employs an on-board, low-pressure hydrogen storage/delivery system integrated with a hydrogen fuel cell (HFC)/battery hybrid power system. It will replace traditional diesel-electric internal combustion engines (ICEs), and transform Canada into a globally dominant hydrogen-based technology and energy provider and user in pursuit of its Investing in Canada Plan, Transport 2030 and Net Zero 2050 goals. The global hydrogen storage market is expected to reach US 1.13 B by 2026 with a CAGR of 8.3%, which is roughly 8% of the total market. Several innovative outcomes of the research proposed in this Alliance grant application include:1. Low-pressure, on-board H2 storage and delivery system that extends operating locomotive range,2. Computer-assisted power control module that mimics responsiveness of traditional locomotive units,3. System integration that allows hydrail units to seamlessly emulate & pair with diesel-electric units.The on-board, low-pressure hydrogen storage/delivery system is being researched in partnership with Hydrogen in Motion Inc. (H2M). H2M is a Vancouver based organization unique in its development of low-pressure hydrogen storage technology based on nanomaterials (adsorbent based). It makes H2M technology extremely light, portable, & shapeable to meet application needs, a major advantage over traditional high-pressure storage. H2M will be a disruptor as the key to solving financial and technical barriers to hydrogen transformation. This will make H2M's storage technology popular not only in ZEV hydrail locomotives, but in other hydrogen technology sectors, thus expanding their market reach. SRY is our other partner in this research, also based in Vancouver, and have been motivated to retrofit their fleet of 31 older locomotives to reduce GHGs and emission fees. This research partnership is proposed to take 5 years, with results shared widely through our existing research, industry, and regulatory networks.

UBC工程学院可持续运输安全研究实验室（STS）提议开发加拿大第一辆零排放车辆（ZEV）水车机车。 Hydrail采用了与氢燃料电池（HFC）/电池混合动力系统集成的板载，低压氢存储/输送系统。 它将取代传统的柴油内燃烧发动机（ICE），并将加拿大转变为基于全球的基于氢的技术，能源提供商和用户，以追求加拿大对加拿大计划的投资，Transport 2030和net net Zero 2050目标。 预计到2026年，全球氢存储市场预计将达到1.13 B，复合年增长率为8.3％，约占总市场的8％。 该联盟赠款申请中提出的研究的一些创新成果包括：1。低压，板载H2存储和输送系统，该系统扩展了操作机车范围2。计算机辅助的电源控制模块模仿了传统机车单元的响应能力，3。允许水龙头单元可以与柴油电动单位配对的系统集成。正在与氢In In Motion Inc.（H2M）合作研究板上的低压氢存储/输送系统。 H2M是基于纳米材料（基于吸附剂）的低压氢存储技术开发的基于温哥华的组织。它使H2M技术极为轻，便携式和可调以满足应用程序需求，这是传统高压存储的主要优势。 H2M将是解决氢转化的财务和技术障碍的关键。 这将使H2M的存储技术不仅在Zev Hydrail机车中流行，而且在其他氢技术领域中流行，从而扩大了其市场范围。 SRY是我们在这项研究中的另一个合作伙伴，也是位于温哥华的，并有动力改造其31个较老的机车的机队，以减少温室气体和排放费用。 该研究合作伙伴关系提议需要5年的时间，并通过我们现有的研究，行业和监管网络广泛分享结果。
